Title: wargames factory shock troops
Post by: Archer on July 10, 2010, 10:22:26 AM

Is any one getting the new Shock Troops from Wargames Factory?  I actually have some on their way to me over here... given some of the guns look like shotguns, I plan on a dark slayer army again....

While I haven't purchased any, I paid close attention to the months of quibbling on what they should look like.  They are extremely nice figs!

I expect they will be extremely popular with the 40k crowd.

I plan on getting a few boxes of them.  In my mind they kinda remind me of the Crimson Guard action figures of Cobra from the cartoon G.I. Joe.  I plan on painting up quite a few of them in that red/black & silver color scheme.  If only I could find a plastic torso that would look more like their uniform.

Anyway,  I plan on using them for a squad of zombie slayin' Shock Troopers in friendly skirmish games.

And just because it needs to be said...

CCCCcccooooobbbbrrrraaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!            :D

It's the 'LA' that sets it apart from the ordinary.

Class dismissed.
